Chapter Thirty-Nine: Say No to Lore!
Now that the ball belongs to the Cavaliers, Irving quickly carries the ball to the frontcourt, and they have no room to waste time when the score is behind.
"I'm not going to let you pass!"
Bai Xiaonian directly blocked Owen's path, although he knew Owen's offensive habits very well, he still didn't know how to really defend him.
Stick to Owen's waist, only in this way will he not be deceived by Owen's feints. Owen's dribbling rhythm is getting faster and faster, and he continues to change direction left and right in the hope of shaking out Bai Xiaonian's flaws, but it's a pity that Xiao Bai Tong's shoes were not fooled this time, no matter how realistic his feints are, but he just can't get rid of Bai Xiaonian's defense.
Twenty-four seconds of offensive time passed quickly, and Owen glanced anxiously at the timer above the basketball hoop, where the numbers had become single digits.
"This time Wood successfully defended Irving, and the Minnesota Timberwolves won!"
After seeing the situation on the court, Hillman Cotton said excitedly, as if he had seen the team's victory.
In a hurry, Irving could only force his jump and pull out his hand under Bai Xiaonian's strict defense, which made Cleveland Cavaliers head coach Byron Scott who was standing on the sidelines feel desperate, and the shooting percentage of such a forced shot is too small, unless a miracle happens, otherwise they will lose this game.
However, the world is so wonderful, the basketball swirls in the air and smashes on the back edge of the basket, then jumps a few times mischievously, and finally falls into the basket.
"Huh? This... It looked like the Cavaliers had a lot of luck today, and even the baskets at the home of the Target Center arena were helping them. ”
The voice was like stuck in his throat, and the live commentator, Hillman Keton, held back for a long time, and finally held back a sentence.
And our little white children's shoes stood in place helplessly crossed their waists, their defense had done their best, there was no mistake or a single loss, but the basketball still went into the basket, which made Bai Xiaonian a little frustrated.
At this time, Kyrie Irving patted Bai Xiaonian on the shoulder to show comfort, he and Bai Xiaonian's mood is completely two extremes now, he was ready to rush into the interior to grab the rebound, but who knew that the ball actually bounced in.
He had also had such an experience before, so he could fully understand Bai Xiaonian's mood at this moment.
As a result, the score of the two sides came to 88 draws, and the two teams were back on the same page with the last minute and seven seconds left before the end of the game.
Timberwolves head coach Rick Adelman didn't call a timeout at this time, believing that Bai Xiaonian knew what to do on the court.
Switching offense and defense, Bai Xiaonian came to the Cavaliers' half with the ball and kept swimming near the three-point line.
At this time, the Cleveland Cavaliers' marking came to a height they had never reached before, and the continuous running positions of the Timberwolves players were all seen through, which made Bai Xiaonian unable to find a target for the ball for a while, and even Lefu was killed by Valle Choka on the inside.
"I promise you! It was the Cleveland Cavaliers' best game of the season! ”
Hillman Cottonon said angrily that this level of defense he only sees in the NBA playoffs.
Bai Xiaonian faced Owen's defense and continued to dribble behind the ball, he could feel that his physical fitness had begun to decline gradually, and he didn't know what would happen if he continued to grind like this!
As time passed, Xiao Baitongs's heart began to become anxious, and his heart was chaotic, and the chain reaction in his body made his dribbling flawed.
Owen saw the opportunity for Bai Xiaonian to lose his mind and directly reached out and poked the ball, knocked the ball off from Bai Xiaonian to his back, and then started to chase the ball directly, and the action was done in one go.
"Wood! Wood! Don't panic at this time! Mistake..."
Hillman's frustrated voice can be heard from his psychology at this time, and of course, this also represents the voice of most Timberwolves fans on the scene. Although they didn't want to complain about Bai Xiaonian, he really had to take the blame for this ball.
Owen, who completed the steal, was like a fast horse, gliding through the court and slamming the dunk, directly overtaking the score of the two sides. This has boiled over the Cleveland Cavaliers' bench, and there's nothing better than a steal of an opposing core guard at a time like this.
The Timberwolves, who were two points behind, had no choice but to call a timeout, and Bai Xiaonian also needed to calm down at this time, if there was a problem with the team's organizational core spirit at this time, it would be a big trouble.
"Wood, do you know what your own problem is?"
Rick Adelman walked up to Bai Xiaonian, who was panting for breath on the bench, and asked, without the slightest hint of blame in his tone.
"Yes Coach, I see..."
Clenched his fists, Bai Xiaonian said in a low voice.
He understood his mistake the moment he was tackled, of course, anyone would be frustrated when it came to this kind of thing, but he also understood that the real winner was the one who won in the end.
The two sides returned to the court, because there were only 43 seconds left before the end of the game, so in order to grab an offensive round, Bai Xiaonian came to the front court and shot a three-point shot directly with the cover of Lefu.
"Wood's three points! Voted very resolutely! ”
Hillman Ketton exclaimed.
Bai Xiaonian, who had readjusted his mentality, had a confident glow on his face, and now he was really full of firepower.
"Huh!"
The crisp sound of brushing the net echoed in the target center arena, and all the Timberwolves fans on the scene stood up and applauded Bai Xiaonian's redemption goal.
Bai Xiaonian looked at Owen's annoyed expression and said with a smile: "The game is not over yet!" ”
And Owen glared at Bai Xiaonian angrily, it was this hateful guy who made them fall behind by one point again.
Irving, who received the ball in the backcourt, did not choose the usual offensive routine, but learned from the Timberwolves' offense just now.
After borrowing Valejo's body to jam Bai Xiaonian, Owen also split the fire in the bottom corner.
Watching the basketball smoothly drill into the basket, the entire target center arena was silent.
"It's... Is it quasi-lore? ”
Looking at the 9.7 seconds left on the timer, Hillman Ketton said with some disappointment.
Of course, on the court, Bai Xiaonian naturally couldn't give up like this, and quickly advanced to the front court with the ball. The Cavaliers immediately sent two team members to bag Bai Xiaonian, hoping that this would force Bai Xiaonian's shoes to make mistakes.
However, the more tense a person is, the more likely he is to make a stroke of genius, a no look pass. The basketball was sent to Milicic on the inside, who was left unattended. And the latter will not waste this precious opportunity to score an easy layup.
In the last 1.3 seconds of the game, the two sides were tied again at 93-93! In the end, the game was dragged into overtime as Irving's ultra-long three-point shot missed.
